Watch NBA : Memphis Grizzlies vs New Orleans Hornets Live Streaming, Starts at 8:00 PM ET, March 3, 2010.

The struggling New Orleans Hornets are sliding down the Western Conference standings. A loss to the Memphis Grizzlies will only further that descent.

The Hornets look for their 10th straight home win over the Grizzlies, who are trying to set a franchise record with their fifth consecutive victory on the road.

Coupled with Portland’s 103-93 win at Memphis on Monday, New Orleans (31-30) fell four games behind the Trail Blazers for the eighth and final playoff spot with its 106-92 loss to San Antonio. The Hornets, who have lost four of five, lead the 11th-place Grizzlies (30-30) by one-half game.

After scoring a season-high 35 points in a 108-100 loss at Dallas on Sunday, rookie point guard Darren Collison was held to 10 on Monday as New Orleans’ three-game home winning streak was snapped.

Collison has made it tough for opponents since taking over for Chris Paul, who is not expected to return from arthroscopic knee surgery until at least the middle of this month. Collison was named Western Conference rookie of the month for February and is averaging 20.5 points and 9.4 assists in the last 15 games without Paul.

The first start in this stretch was at Memphis on Jan. 30, when Collison scored 17 points with a season-high 18 assists as New Orleans overcame a 21-point third-quarter deficit to win 109-102 in overtime and snap the Grizzlies’ franchise-record 11-game home winning streak.

Since that loss, the Grizzlies are 1-8 at home, dropping their last seven.
